AVIATION BIDS FOR ORIENT TRADE Lines Across Pacific Seen by Spring via Hawaii, Guam and Manila. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, December 2 —Ameri- can aviation within the next few months will project new aerial trade routes over the Pacific Ocean to tap the Orient's world markets. Experimental service between the mainland of the United States and | Canton, China, is to be inaugurated this Spring by Pan-American Airways in establishing flying routes and schedules that are expected within a year to bring the Orient 60 hours from Pacific Coast cities. Comparable in trade significance with the advent of the American | clipper ships of the nineteenth cen-| tury, the transpacific transport flights will be the initial bid of international aviation for transoceanic transport trade. Route 8,780 Miles Long. Pan-American, it became known definitely, will launch this service this | Spring in a series of flights over al route 8780 miles long. The longest over-water hop will be that of 2400 miles between California and Hawail Pan-American’s projected trade | route, it was learned, is over six easy legs—California to Hawaii, Hawaii to Midway Island, Midway to Wake Is-| land, Wake to Guam, Guam to Ma- nila in the Philippines, Manila to| Canton. Representations have already been | made for the establishment of thops and sea bases at those land points on the long transpacific route, it was | understood. It has not been deter- mined fully what will be the terminal location on the Pacific Coast The equipment for Pacific transport will be giant Martin flying boats, with a gross weight of 51.000 tons, capable of carrying 50 passengers, and cruising speed of approximately miles an hour. Cruising Radius 4,000 Miles. With & pay load of 16 passengers and a ton of express. these new clip- | pers of the air can cruise 3,000 miles, ‘ well in excess of the longest over- water mileage.

Advanced ship design and radio in- stallation has been incorporated in the new alrships, which are one-third larger than the Sikorsky clippers with which the Pan-American pilots broke virtually every transport air record this Summer. Training flights for the -clipper crews are scheduled to begin this week, when a Sikorsky S-42 flies an all-ocean route to Miami and the Cariooean for several months of sea- soning In navigation, radio direction finding and general maritime navi- gating methods. Quarter-deck procedure has been carried out in the new Martin flying boats, for three of which Pan-Ameri- | can paid $1,000,000. To Seat Two Pilots. A half-deck cockpit will seat two pilots. On a quarter-deck above will operate the flight captain, whose au- thority will be that of a sailing mas- ter. A radio operator. a flight engi- neer and a purser compose the rest of the crew. By spanning the Pacific, Pan- American will be able to link up| branches of its service now extending half-way around the world through the Caribbean, Central and South America and China proper. The Chi- nese operations are through Thech- | nese National Aviation Corp., which links the principal markets of Can- | ton, Shanghai and Peiping, and Chengtu. up the Yangtze River. As in the South American market international aviation competition in the Far East is keen. The British and Dutch both skirt China and Bangkok, and the French extend in- land to China proper in Indo-China. | Germany In Orient Lanes. Germany, with the Eurasia Line (Lufthansas subsidiary), has already established itself between Shanghal, Hankow and Peiping, and is ready to | provide a direct link between Central | Europe and the Orient through estab- lishment of a line across Northern China and connecting with trans- Siberian services at the Soviet border. |~ The transpacific service is coming | much sooner than was originally ex- pected—due chiefly to announced plans of the British and Frerch for~ larger and improved equipment. and the commercial significance of trade | with the Orient. It was generally thought that trans- | atlantic service would precede the | Pacific. As it is, Pan-American and Imperial Airways have made propo- sals for joint operation of an Atlantic and round-the-world service, a plan | which has been held up for the imomcm | | " OE HIG {'oUR PLUMBER *INCORPORATED" Eye-Strain Headaches Positively Relieved Wear Smartly Styled Eyewear!
